We prove the triviality of the Grothendieck ring of a integer-valued field K under slight conditions on the logical language and on K. We construct a definable bijection from the plane K^2 to itself minus a point. When we specialize to…

Let $A\subset B$ be an integral ring extension of integral domains with fields of fractions $K$ and $L$, respectively. The integral degree of $A\subset B$, denoted by ${\rm d}_A(B)$, is defined as the supremum of the degrees of minimal…

In his unpublished preprint "Definable Valuations" Koenigsmann shows that every field that admits a t-henselian topology is either real closed or separably closed or admits a definable valuation inducing the t-henselian topology. To show…

Let $K$ be a characteristic zero algebraic function field with a valuation $\nu$. Let $L$ be a finite extension of $K$ and $\omega$ be an extension of $\nu$ to $L$. We establish that the valuation ring $V_{\omega}$ of $\omega$ is…

We study the theory of a global field k as a k-vector space with a predicate for one of the absolute values on k. For example, we prove that in this language a global field with an ultrametric or real archimedean absolute value has a…

We consider d-minimal expansions of ordered fields. We demonstrate the existence of definable quotients of definable sets by definable equivalence relations when several technical conditions are satisfied. These conditions are satisfied…

We give an explicit algebraic characterisation of all definable henselian valuations on a dp-minimal real field. Additionally we characterise all dp-minimal real fields that admit a definable henselian valuation with real closed residue…

Let $R$ be an o-minimal expansion of a group in a language in which $\textrm{Th}(R)$ eliminates quantifiers, and let $C$ be a predicate for a valuational cut in $R$. We identify a condition that implies quantifier elimination for…

We study algebraic, combinatorial and topological properties of the set of preorders on a group, and the set of valuations on a field. We show strong analogies between these two kinds of sets and develop a dictionary for these ones. Among…

We develop the theory of frames and Parseval frames for finite-dimensional vector spaces over the binary numbers. This includes characterizations which are similar to frames and Parseval frames for real or complex Hilbert spaces, and the…

In this paper we associate an invariant to a biquaternion algebra $B$ over a field $K$ with a subfield $F$ such that $K/F$ is a quadratic separable extension and $\operatorname{char}(F)=2$. We show that this invariant is trivial exactly…

Let $K$ be a field equipped with a discrete valuation $v$. In a pioneering work, S. MacLane determined all valuations on $K(x)$ extending $v$. His work was recently reviewed and generalized by M. Vaqui\'e, by using the graded algebra of a…

In this paper we present a characterization for the defect of a simple algebraic extension of rank one valued fields using the key polynomials that define the valuation. As a particular example, this gives the classification of defect…

Let $v$ be a discrete valuation of a field $K$, which indicates that the valuation group of $v$ is isomorphic to the integers $\mathbb{Z}$ with the natural order, and let $L$ be a finite separable extension of $K$ with a complete set…

We show that there is a strong minimal pair in the computably enumerable Turing degrees.

We study asymptotic jumping numbers for graded sequences of ideals, and show that every such invariant is computed by a suitable real valuation of the function field. We conjecture that every valuation that computes an asymptotic jumping…

We prove a dichotomy for o-minimal fields $\mathcal{R}$, expanded by a $T$-convex valuation ring (where $T$ is the theory of $\mathcal{R}$) and a compatible monomial group. We show that if $T$ is power bounded, then this expansion of…

A Fenchel-Moreau type duality for proper convex and lower semi-continuous functions $f\colon X\to \overline{L^0}$ is established where $(X,Y,\langle \cdot,\cdot \rangle)$ is a dual pair of Banach spaces and $\overline{L^0}$ is the set of…

We define a $q$-deformation of the classical ring of integer-valued polynomials which we call the ring of quantum integer-valued polynomials. We show that this ring has a remarkable combinatorial structure and enjoys many positivity…

This paper deals with well-known extensions of the Prufer domain concept to arbitrary commutative rings. We investigate the transfer of these notions in trivial ring extensions (also called idealizations) of commutative rings by modules and…
